30 Places To Do It Before You’re 30*
Our editor Amelia is turning 30 in a week and her essay on the subject really resonated with Frisky readers, both younger and older than 30. With that in mind, we’ll be reposting our “Before 30” series, which originally ran late last year, over the next few weeks. Enjoy!

Hmm I need to get cracking! I’m nearly 25 and have only done it in 4 of the above locations (well, I combined two ‘cause the tent was IN the woods, and the deed was done multiple times). I dunno if the zoo really appeals to me, but many of the others do

Parents’ bed?? OK, I’m passing on that one. It might be hilarious for a rebellious teenager, but if you’re doing it in your parents’ bed when you’re an adult and have no need to get “back” at them, that smacks of psychological issues to me.

For those of us over 30: do not despair! I assume the rules of the game change to be “40 Best Places To Have Sex Before You’re 40”... So, what are the incremental 10?

If you think a cornfield is sexy, you have clearly never been in a cornfield! It’s all mud - and not the good kind. This is the voice of experience here.
Also, I think you meant “bale of hay” not barrel.

Well, I have done 9. I think it helps that I live in MT, so there were a few that happen ‘regularly’. Haha, 4 more years to bang out the other 21.
**except for the beach, ugh. no thanks ever again!

# 8: I think your co-workers might object. :-D
# 17: This one has to come off of the list. It’s a hold-over from the 70’s “mile high club” and is absolutely rediculous. An airplane bathroom is 1/3 the size of a phone booth, and most of them stink.

I’ve done ten of them, if you count the body of water at a pool. And I’m sure the security guard was watching that one, because they were very friendly towards me. Of course this is before I found out that there was a video camera capturing every moment of said encounter. Whoops. LOL

All these places sound very painful! All these hard surfaces are painful on the back and the knees. I’d add
- back porch
- in a forest or the woods
- on the ice (i heard that once you figure out the “grip”, it could be quite steamy.)
- front passenger seat of a car parked by the ocean
- on a park bench
... be back when I think of more.

LOL! I completely read the title wrong! I thought it said 30 places TO GO before you turn 30, and I’m reading it thinking, “Damn I wonder how many other women avoid their kitchen, and all other kitchens, like the plague as I do?” Goodness I need to learn how to read, it wasn’t till I got down to “on the floor”, that I even realized it made no sense! Hilarious
Is anyone else afraid they’ll get sucked out of the plane using the bathroom. That fear is so overwhelming to me, I’ve never used the airplane restroom, I just hold it. If i ever leave the country, I might be screwed though…

I’m not big on public sex, so I’ll have to opt out of most of this list. I’ve done a few of them, but I mostly stick to my own bedroom now. I’d rather have hot, leisurely sex in a comfy place than quick, panicked sex in public any day though.

Why before you’re thirty? You have your whole life to have sex at the zoo… if that’s what turns you on… Still, I have done it in a psychiatric hospital. Who else can say that?

Done a lot of them. Like the idea of some others except public transportation - that’s a bit much (except for a train compartment). Bar bathrooms - you’d have to be pretty drunk. Like restaurant bathroom better - usually much cleaner. How do you stay in one place on the stairs?
Here are some others to go toward the 40 by 40:
Pool & hot tub; driving; movie theater; outdoor music festival; shower; country club locker room; hotel balcony

I love this list. Story of my life.
And to those of you that are considering using these places for your first time, be sure you do it where you WANT it to happen, and not somewhere public just because you don’t have any other place to go. Public sex isn’t for everyone, and if you’re not certain that it’s for you, you may want to consider just waiting until you find a place that’s right for you. It sucks to wait, but public sex is risky, and you’ve already got a whole lot to think about.

I can answer affirmatively to 5, 7, 10, 14 (if you can count a cruse ship), 16, 19 (if a sheepskin in front of the fire counts) 20, and 21.
Thought the prospect of doing them before 30 is not possible of the remainders I might consider 11, 12, 26, and 27. The potential legal ramifications or plain old uncomfortableness of it leaves out quite a number of the others.
Things I might have included in such a list: In a steaming shower. In a bathtub or jacuzzi, In a foreign country (extra points for different continent) in a luxury location like a hotel suite or cruise ship, and I would have made in front of a fire its own category, bearskin rug or not.

I was not aware anyone put hay in barrels… also there are snakes and gophers and stuff in corn fields. Noooo thank you. And, parents’ bed? Creepy. Besides those… good list!
